Thanks Bob

Bob I dont want to see the data transfer I want to suck the program from the basic module.

I was told that you and communicate with a Basic module with Hyperlink. If so can someone give step by step instructions on how to do this. Thanks

Thank you Mr. Roach

A couple of weeks ago someone was showing me a this driver. It was errored whenever he tried to delete it he would get the blue screen and his computer would shut down. Now a maintanance tech has added it to the training computer and the same thing happens wou cant delete it change it or anything. Does anyone know what is going on and how I can get rid of it.

Thanks Russ & Steve

You are correct Steve I was confusing the firmware with the revision level of Logicmaster software. The current LogicMaster software rev I an using is 9.05. but when I connect to the 351 CPU It is 7.01. If I make a logic change is the PLC will the rev change to 9.05 and can I increase the registers.

I have some 351 CPU with Rev. 7.01 I need to expand the memory. Can I upgrade the Rev. to 9.01 and if so will I have the memory expansion option.

Setup one of your ports like this. setup links like this.

I am sure here what happened here was when the flow was slowed down another done bit turned on and then the done and enable bit couldn't equal up and advance the sequence. I have seen this before. this is where you start getting into masking. The e-techs should just look at enable and done bits but they always end up searching and getting to the SQI and SQO then they freeze and through there hands up. That is what have against these drum sequencers.

We build many new machines every year. Everything is is ran with a SQO. To add to the confusion every motion uses the same sequencer. We have a user defined JSR that plugs the required input data into the standard sequencer. eg. the standard is like A_dir or B_dir. the JSR would plug in Press_up or Press_Down. To make trouble shooting more complicated for the average troubleshooter the is a mask involved to ignore sensors that are not needed to step the sequence. Now the JSR passes out the command to actually turn on the required output. I wish I could show you. You wouldnt like it. I do like to sequence though. I use a bit shift left, in GE I use a bit sequencer (its about the same) It is very simple to troubleshoot if the step is true but the status wont come on all you have to do is search the the status bit and what ever contitions to step the BSL are there. I will export the logic and post it since it is my own. BSL_32_bit_sequencer.zip I would like to here comments thanks.

I had a production employee that is taking a PLC class stop me. He said he loaded the RSLogix 500 software on his computer at home and the tool bar area and his tabs are black, and he wanted to change it. I told him that I don't think it is changeable from the 500 software it is part of his windows display setup. Am I correct in my thinking?

What is being said is to watch how the scan works or you will copy over the previous register before moving it to the next register.

Alaric that is a nice picture of happy valley, Hangen with the zoobies huh. I went to the tech school there. I dont know if any of you are into the movie Jeremiah Johnson but a good portition for that movie was filmed on the back side if the mountain in Alaric's pic. It is owned by Robert Redford

No the company I am at now is only 1 mile from the Nucor.
